As soon as they entered the villa they saw mirabel gazing at them curiously,estelle frowned in confusion.
"isn't she supposed to be getting ready for school"
"her condition is critical so we don't take her to school"
estelle nodded in understanding.
"i'll go get ready for work"
Estelle nodded and sat beside mirabel,"do you have a gym in this villa"
"yes...my dad usually practices there so it's full of equipment"
Estelle nodded in satisfaction,she went upstairs and soon she appeared in black sports bra and a slim-fitted tight.
Mirabel stood up and led her to the gym,estelle eyes widened in glee she rushed to the equipments and was caressing them,she had seen them in the book of technology,so it felt unbelievable seeing them in real life.
She soon started practicing them,realizing how frail this body was,mirabel waljed to the living room and casually sat reading a book.
An hour later,axel emerged from upstairs,not seeing estelle he asked mirabel,who pointed to the direction of the gym room,he saw estelle emerged from the hallway drenched in sweat,she rushed to him and handed him a piece of paper.
"This are herbs that help strenghten the heart"
Axel stared at her not hearing a single word she said,his eyes were glued to her chest,sweat rolled down her neck and down to her chest slipping into the unknown.
He gulped and averted his gaze rushing out in a haste,estelle stared at his hasty figure and shrugged.
Axel got into the car and took a deep breath the images of estelle filling his head,he shut his eyes tight,cole observed his reaction from the rearview mirror and asked tentatively.
"boss are you okay?"
Axel gritted his teeth"are you gonna drive or not"
Cole jolted and quickly started the car.
Estelle sighed feeling bored,when lillian's call came in.
"hey wanna hang out?"
"yep"
"ok...i'll come pick you up"
"lakeview villa"
Estelle hung up the phone and glanced at mirabel studying,she told aunt may she was going out,she waited by the roadside for a while,when lillian's car pulled up,she got in and they hit the road.
Soon they reached the park and lillian set up a picnic,estelle glanced at her in suprise.
"seriously?..a picnic"
Lillian gazed at her sadly "anything to escape that hell of a house"
Estelle nodded in understanding,in the original owner's memory,she recalled lillian was often bullied by her stepmother and stepsister and the blame was always shifted to her,her father always believed them blindly,this led to lillian feeling lonely.
Estelle smiled at her comfortingly and was about to cheer her up when a cricketball hit her on her cheek and it swelled instantly turning red,she glared at the boy.
But the boy didn't show remorse even mocking her,estelle's anger grew,leonard who was also in the park sat down eager to see the outcome,lillian stood up and was about to confront the boy when estelle held her hand and gave her a reasurring glance she whispered in her ear and turned to glance at the boy ignoring lillian's confusion.
"what's your name?"
The boy scoffed"derek...derek torres,you hear that?so don't mess with me or you'll have the torres family to deal with"
she sized him up and down,he looked like he was 18 or 19,no wonder he was arrogant,he had the prestigious torres family backing him up anyone would be intimidated but estelle evans feared no one,tsk tsk such a pity i'll try to avoid his face.
She smiled sweetly"can we play together?"
Derek stared at her in suprise,but scoffed"bring it on"
The crowd gasped and couldn't help but look at estelle in sympathy.
"but...no gears just ordinary clothes"
Estelle paused and her smile grew wider,she nodded and crowd's noise grew louder,lillian looked at her in worry.
"trust me i know what i'm doing..just do what i asked you to do"
Derek smirked"the rules are...we'll both deliver ten strikes no holding back"
Estelle shrugged"you go first"
They went into position estelle threw the ball and derek hit it deliberately targeting the ball to hit her arm,estelle clutched her arm and broke out in a cold sweat,damn this body was too frail.
"you can quit now..its not too late"
Estelle shook her head,leonard glanced at her unyielding figure with interest,the rest of the nine moves were swiftly dodged by estelle,the crowd gasped,she was amazing.
Lillian smiled in relief,estelle took the stick from him and a weird smile appeared on her lips.
Derek threw the ball and estelle hit it,the ball flew and landed accurately on derek's face,she smirked,let the show begin.
The next couple off hits landed on his ribs,his arms, his legs and other part of his body,with deadly precision and strenght.
The crowd were so shocked that they even videoed her and posted it on weibo.
She delivered the last strike and it landed on his arm,he fell limp on the floor,soon the ambulance arrived and took him to the hospital,even settling his bill on the spot.
The crowd grew wild with excitement,lillian glanced at her in awe,no wonder she told her to call the ambulance earlier,she had actually predicted it.
Estelle sighed in regret,if her body was strong like in her past life he'd surely need stitches,leonard glanced at her confident figure from afar his heart heating wildly,a smile crept on his lips,it seemed he has fallen for this wild cat....
